Jews for Climate Action at the People’s Climate March

Thank you to the dozen who walked under the Jews for Climate Action banners at the People’s Climate March in Melbourne on Friday (25/11/2015). The rally drew an estimated 60,000 people in an unprecedented call to action from the government. AJDS executive member Sivan Barak described it as ‘Gathering the wondering Jews in Melbourne CBD, uniting across various divisions, crying dayenu about the mess our planet is in.’
At the same time many people joined the vigil against the forced closure of remote Aboriginal communities in Western Australia and other places. Watch Les Thomas from sosblakaustralia and Millie Telford of Seed Indigenous Youth Climate Network on NITV news.
Check out the photo album and read our recent statement on the environment. We’ll be discussing it at our upcoming annual general meeting.
